207 West 102nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

As of July 2025, 207 West 102nd Street is a 5-story, 22-unit East and North facing Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Michael Bergman. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with particularly concerning violations noted in November 2024, including an active violation for a fire-damaged apartment (3B) and multiple Class C violations regarding defective self-closing fire doors in apartments 5B and 5C. Multiple apartments have also been cited for plaster and paint defects, including units 2B, 2C, and 1B, particularly affecting ceilings in various rooms including bathrooms.

The building has a documented history of plumbing and rodent issues, with a 2021 water supply complaint and periodic rodent sightings, though recent inspections from 2019 through 2024 have generally passed rodent inspections. There was one rat sighting in September 2021, which was investigated but did not result in any violations. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management, with annual reports from 2020 through 2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units.

Recent maintenance complaints include issues with window A/C unit support brackets on the 2nd and 5th floors, for which a $500 penalty was imposed in 2023, though this violation remains active as of the latest records. The building has also had several Department of Buildings complaints, including a gas utility referral in 2021 and electrical wiring concerns in 2024, though inspections did not result in any violations being verified at the time of inspection. The property has shown some pattern of maintenance and compliance issues over the years, particularly regarding door safety features and interior finishes, though it has generally met health and safety requirements in recent rodent and bedbug inspections. While there have been multiple violations noted, many have been resolved through inspections and corrections, though several open violations remain as of the latest records.
